Gruyere Soppressata Puff Pastry

I'm here to start your Monday off with CHEESE. I was on a cheese kick this weekend, as I haven't had enough of it lately. One of my very favorite kinds of cheese is Gruyere. I could have just eaten a full 7 course meal, but if I smell Gruyere cheese melting...I immediately become hungry.

While we are all on the edge of our seats waiting for those results, let's just eats some dang cheese. In fact, let's put some soppressata in there and wrap the whole thing in puff pastry and call it a day. It's like a fancy pig-in-a-blanket, except it's more like a mattress filled with salty meat and cheesy goodness. And who doesn't want that in their bed?

So, in light of the above, I think even Pavlov would agree that you should make this as an appetizer for your next grill-a-thon, social gathering, attempt at attracting stray animals.
